I’m never quite sure how much to cover rap/rock acts. It’s not a personal issue but a question of how to focus this project. Nevertheless, when Kid Rock switches music publishers, it’s hip hop business news. Especially when he clarifies his stance on money and music:
“”Labels like Atlantic and Warner Chappell aren’t the great music labels they used to be. They’re just businesses now,” Kid Rock told The Associated Press. “I’ve been fortunate to make a lot of money and to have a great fan base, so now my focus is on just making music.”"

I also try to avoid R&B, although that’s difficult with all the duets and crosspromotions and the insufficient label “Urban” mixing them together, but when Jay-Z’s girlfriend Beyonce launches a clothing line, that’s pretty darn close to hip hop business news. Plus, she’ll design the line with her mother! That girl ain’t never leaving home.
